Someone is probably tracking numbers and has current SPAH membership and attendance records. These would help chart past success/failure and be a good basis for strategies to help insure the future of SPAH.

>  Both Garden State AND SPAH seem to have no trouble 'adding membership and 
attendance' especially since both added Jazz to their programs and have young 
people attending more than ever before. It wasn't any accident that jazz played 
an important role at Sacramento and Garden state. Personally, it was many years 
ago that I almost quit going to fests because I was getting tired of the same 
old stuff.
